Designer Crystal Nagel is known for mixing traditional elements with fresh ideas, and her home-remodeling background gives her unique insight when helping clients plan their spaces. This kitchen is just one of many spaces Nagel has fully overhauled for her clients, and she shares a little background about the design concept.

“Valuable storage like the walk-in pantry, the coffee and appliance bar, and a paneled refrigerator give this kitchen clean lines and an uncluttered feel,” says Nagel. “This is a hip, young family, so we wanted the architecture to match; we raised the ceilings into the pitch of the roofline and added wood beams for a modern look.” The arched kitchen window allows for lots of natural light, so Nagel drew inspiration from the outdoors, mixing natural textures with wood cabinets, painted elements, and a handmade tile backsplash with Caesarstone Primordia countertops. “Giving each client a space that fits their lifestyle is our goal with every project,” she says.
